memory-barriers: Fix description of data dependency barriers
In the description of data dependency barriers the words 'before' is used erroneously. Since such barrier order dependent loads one after the other. So substitute 'before' with 'after'.

where two loads are performed such that the second depends on the result

of the first (eg: the first load retrieves the address to which the second

load will be directed), a data dependency barrier would be required to

make sure that the target of the second load is updated before the address

make sure that the target of the second load is updated after the address

A data dependency barrier is a partial ordering on interdependent loads
